/config/hooks/post_watch_folder_processing.sh

I am trying to get this script to shutdown the system on auto conversion completion. The system is Proxmox with one Docker, Handbrake.

 `#!/bin/sh
#
# This is an example of a post watch folder processing hook.  This script is
# always invoked with /bin/sh (shebang ignored).
#
# The argument of the script is the path to the watch folder.
#

#WATCH_FOLDER=$1
WATCH_FOLDER=/watch

echo "post-watch folder processing: Watch folder = $WATCH_FOLDER"

# TODO: Do something useful.
ssh -l root 192.168.1.83 /usr/sbin/poweroff`
``
The SSH command is to shutdown the host. It works if executed on its own but not in the script.

I have narrowed down the problem to being unable to pass the ssh key or password into the docker container.

OK worked it out. In the docker you need to install openssh and sshpass
This line will close the host down on auto conversion completion:

sshpass -p MyPassword ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no root@host.ip.address /usr/sbin/poweroff

No doubt insecure, there will be better solutions.
